This question is about etiquette and open source projects.
I have forked an application from github and added two new features.
The first feature has been request frequently elsewhere. I have added it. Code & implementation are clean (I think).
The second feature is more of a hack. It will be of use to others, but the implementation is a little dirty in useage and more so in code. I need the feature but I don't have the skills to fully implement it properly or to a level that could be considered a worth while contrabution to the main project.
How should the versioning work? Do I just bump up my version numbers care-free and push to my master branch?
It is annoying to know which version is running, modifed or original, as both have the same version number. But will it be confusing when, months later, my github page has a version number the same as the original but both are actually completely different. (I have made pull requests etc. but that is not the context of my question.)
The project I have forked uses ruby jeweler so has a versioning format of:
Jeweler tracks the version of your project. It assumes you will be using a version in the format x.y.z.
x is the 'major' version, y is the 'minor' version, and z is the patch version.
Is this standard for other projects/langauges too? Are my changes patches?
Thanks
I'm having a completely nonsensical issue in Windows XP SP3. Basically my "Windows Audio" service no longer starts automatically. Despite being set to "Automatic" I have to manually go in and start it.
This issue didn't start until the most recent update of VirtualBox, but I can't find anything on the forums related to this specific issue. I've tried reinstalling the RealTek drivers as well, in the event that that had something to do with it.
Any assistance is most appreciated!
EDIT 1: It is the host's audio that won't start. The update of Virtualbox was merely the "marker" of when these events started occurring. Given it's the only variable/change I'm assuming a correlation.
I have a new computer with an Asus P8Z68-V LE + Intel i2500 + 8GB of RAM.
I installed Ubuntu without any issue, but the USB3 (from the motherboard - on the back of the computer) doesn't work.
I plug a USB stick -- nothing, I plug my USB3 external drive -- nothing, when I plug them into the USB2 and everything works perfectly.
Also, I ran all updates and everything is up to date.
What am I missing?
Hello, I was wondering what could be the fastest and the easiest way to grab text that is between tags in string.
For example i have this string: Lorem ipsum <a>dolor sit amet</a>, <b>consectetur</b> adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
And i need to find text that is between tags <a> </a> and <b> </b>.
Thank you.
I'm populating a list from the DB, and i have a image field in the DB which contains a URL to a image file.
ListAdapter adapter=new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,
R.layout.row, constantsCursor,
new String[] {"title", "subtitle", "image"},
new int[] {R.id.value, R.id.title, R.id.icon});
However, the other fields are populated, but the image remains empty.
Why?
I am new to any scripting language. But, still I worked on scripting a bit like tailoring other scripts to work for my purpose. For me, what is the best online resource to learn Perl?
Say I'm using a form with a text-field.
<@s.form action="login"
<@s.textfield label="E-mail" name="email"/
<@s.submit value="send"/
How can I specify that the text-form should be generated by a custom template (text_login.ftl) rather than the standard text.ftl?
I'm trying to compile a downloaded program in Windows. The program is usually run in Linux, but is programmed to also run in Windows (the code has #if defined(_WIN32)'s in it, and claims to work with borland free tools). When I try to use make from the command line, it tells me "Incorrect command line argument: -C". In the makefile, there are many lines that say "make -C" followed by a directory name. Does this syntax not work in Windows? What is a correct way to do this? Is there any way to compile this for native use in Windows with this makefile?
Hi All
Just wondering if there are any POP3 libraries for C# that can be used for free in commercial applications (I will give full credit to the POP Library makers, ofcourse)?
Thank you

I use Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit.
At first I installed pgAdmin through Software Center. But it seemed old. So, I decided to
uninstal it.
Then I downloaded graphic installer for PostgresQL.
sudo ./postgresql-9.2.1-1-linux-x64.run
I was warned that a previous version of pgAdmin is found, it will be upgraded but I'll have to restart the server.
Well, installation process worked. Then I turned out in terminal again.
I restarted the server
/etc/init.d$ sudo ./postgresql-9.2 restart
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.2/pgAdmin3/bin$ ./pgadmin3
The answer is:
The program 'pgadmin3' is currently not installed.
So, I can't find my pgAdmin to launch it. Could you suggest me anything?
I'm an aspiring iPhone developer and I'm looking for a significant OS iPhone codebase to see how others build apps. I'm especially interested in examples exhibiting some or all of the following:
business/enterprise apps
apps that interact with web services
apps utilising XML
apps using oauth or other authenticate
Personally, I'm less interested in games, but feel free to include any examples for the benefit of others.
I'm asking here because the usual places I've been looking (i.e. sourceforge) don't seem to have the kind of examples I'm looking for.
For my website I want to store the general format of the site in a single PHP file in a single location, and each of the different pages content in the local location of the page. I then want to pass the title and content address to the included file via a variable.
However I can't get the included format file to read the variables storing the title and content data.
AKA, the called file for the individual page would be:
<?php
$title = 'Some Title';
$source_file = 'content.php';
readfile('http:...../format.php');
?>
The format file would be:
<html> ...
<title>
<?php
echo $title;
?>
</title>
...
<?php
include($source_file);
?>
...
I recall reading somewhere I need to include something to get the variables at the start of the format file, however I can't remember what it is or find where I found that information.
I have a custom tag in django, but i need use this functionality in a non-view, non-template stage without template engine, there is a way without repeat code?
I'm not sure if I am going about this the right way. I am making some c++ classes to use in 2 apps. I am going to have to compile them to be used in a Cocoa app and later be compiled for use with fastcgi.
Should I create a dynamic library?
Is it possible to draw a transperancy mask of an image (that is, paint all visible pixels with a constant color) using Graphics::DrawImage? I am not looking for manually scanning the image pixel-by-pixel and creating a seperate mask image, I wonder if it's possible to draw one directly from the original image.
My guessing is that it should be done with certain manipulations to ImageAttributes, if possible at all.
The color of the mask is arbitrary and should be accurate, and it would be a plus if there can be a threshold value for the transparency.
I have a website where I want keep track of the Statistics about the users who came to my page from different sources. I want to identify whether user came from Search engines / other websites / direct typing the URL.
I am using asp.net and C#.
Please help
xcopy /e /q ".\dlls\*.*" "%programfiles(x86)%\foo" >> TEMP
xcopy /e /q dlls "%programfiles(x86)%\foo" >> TEMP
xcopy /e /q ".\dlls" "%programfiles(x86)%\foo" >> TEMP
All of the above work on two of my machines (windows 7 64bit).
But on two peers' laptops (windows 7 64 bit and windows 8 64bit) they return
file dlls not found
or (in the case of the first one)
file *.* not found
Can someone shed some light here? The only difference I can see between the machines is possibly permissions. But I don't see how that would affect xcopy's ability to recognize a local path.
I would expect this option to exist in PHP - Editor - Save Actions but the only thing available there is to "remove trailing whitespace"...
It's available in JavaScript - Editor - Save Actions but not php :(
Is there a plugin that will let me do this?
We run a x-copy deployed .net application on our Windows 2008 R2 terminal server. If I want to deploy a new version the file handle is locked by all users running the application. I wonder if I'd deploy using MSI if I could run the installation even when the .exe file is opened and locked by the users. My goal is that each user gets the new version if he/she opens the app the next time. I don't want all users to have to close the application for deployment itself.
I have a small office with 3 computers running Linux Ubuntu. All the data are stored in a NAS drive (WD MyBook Live). I would like to - somehow - be able to access the email archives as well from each of these computers. For now, I don't really care if it would be possible for each user to access the email archives simultaneously (although that would be ideal). I have read about Portable Thunderbird over Wine as well as installing IMAP on the NAS drive. However, not only I haven't found a complete guide on how to do that but I am also not sure whether either of these solutions would work for me anyway.
